title	Uni: A Wander Around the Campus, Plymouth, Devon - 18th December 2005
intro	It's the morning after the reunion, and Nosher wakes up with a start at nearly midday, realising that there's only 15 minutes before it's supposed to be checkout time. After a quick exit, and forgoing plans to document the urban decay of Union Street, it's off to the university (formerly Plymouth Polytechnic) for a look round. Every visit reveals more building, and less and less of the original fabric remains. There's also the sad remains of Kirkby Stores, on Kirky Place, near the James Street Vaults: in the late 80s, student magazine "Fly" had its offices a few doors up, and it provided a handy source of pasties, crisps and cans of pop - everything for a balanced diet. There was also Sunday morning bar work in the Students' Union, which, apart from the early start, was something of a privileged job which included stocking up, cellaring and the most important mission of the day, which was to head over to Kirkby Stores for enough rounds of legendary bacon sandwiches to feed all the bar staff. Fly moved its offices into the SU in the 90s, and there was obviously no-longer enough demand and the place closed down.
